Golden Age tuners are the rebirth of popular early 20th Century tuning machine designs, featuring simple steel plates and open gears. Replacements for the originals have long been sought by collectors and repairmen, to restore older guitars and improve their tuning. They add an authentic look to reproduction guitars.
• 15:1 gear ratio for improved tuning • Vintage style riveted worm posts • Original-shape matte white or matte black plastic knobs • .234" (5.94mm) string post diameter • Original mounting screw spacing (screws incuded) • 1-3/8" (34.93mm) string post spacing • Relic nickel finish
Note: Plate-mounted tuners can't work efficiently if the pegholes are improperly aligned. Our Tuner Drill Jig ensures the correct spacing for accurate tuning.
"The Golden Age Restoration tuners are really great. I have just put them onto my 1929 Gibson L-1...I like the fact that someone went to the trouble of making them look right." —John Evans, Brussels Belgium
"Great tuners with the right look and feel! The only thing different about them is that they are better made and more functional." —Richard Barnes, Pomona CA
To be sure these tuners fit your instrument, compare your existing machines and peghole dimensions to our listed specs to help determine the best replacement.
February 1, 2010 Thank you for the amazingly fast delivery of the Golden Age Restoration tuners I recently ordered. They could not have been easier to install, and fit as if they were made specifically for my Martin 000-15S. They look great, are very precise, and I immediately noticed an improvement in the guitar's volume and tone. An absolutely fantastic product!
